Avrupa Parlamentosu, Türkiye’nin AB’ye üyelik müzakerelerinin askıya alınmasını talep eden bir tasarıyı kabul etti.

The European Parliament adopted a motion on Commissioner Kati Piri`s report suggesting suspending accession talks with Turkey.

638 out of 751 MEPs attended the vote, with 477 voting in favor of the report, while 64 rejected and 94 abstained.

The motion was discussed at the EP Wednesday and is not legally binding.

Although Piri and European Commissioner for European Neighborhood Policy Enlargement Negotiations Johannes Hahn called on the EU to immediately suspend Turkey`s accession, EU countries have urged the bloc to maintain dialogue with Turkey.
